Book Description
Fashion design is not a category usually associated with war, but in fact it is a consideration that all war-mongers must take into account when they are planning battles, be they naval or air, military or rebel, national or international. Every country in the world has its own camouflage--can you tell from the various patterns which country is trying to hide from you? "Useful Photography No. 4: The War Special" exhibits what different countries wear when they go to war and the products that keep them hidden on the front lines.

Book Description
The Many Lives of Erik Kessels presents the highly anticipated first illustrated survey of this pioneering and influential curator, editor, and artist whose varied experiments with photography and photographic archives have allowed us to reconsider the medium's vernacular and narrative possibilities in today's inundated image landscape. People consume photographs, says Kessels, they don't look at them anymore. This volume is a primer on how to look--and how to better understand the hybrid practice of this artist who defies categorization. Including more than twenty of the artist's series and features essays by Simon Baker, Hans Aarsman, and curator Francesco Zanot, The Many Lives of Erik Kessels is published in conjunction with a major midcareer retrospective at CAMERA-Centro Italiano per la Fotografia in Turin, Italy.

A Biography of the Pixel
Author: Alvy Ray Smith
Publisher: MIT Press
ISBN: 0262542455
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 560
Book Description
The pixel as the organizing principle of all pictures, from cave paintings to Toy Story. The Great Digital Convergence of all media types into one universal digital medium occurred, with little fanfare, at the recent turn of the millennium. The bit became the universal medium, and the pixel--a particular packaging of bits--conquered the world. Henceforward, nearly every picture in the world would be composed of pixels--cell phone pictures, app interfaces, Mars Rover transmissions, book illustrations, videogames. In A Biography of the Pixel, Pixar cofounder Alvy Ray Smith argues that the pixel is the organizing principle of most modern media, and he presents a few simple but profound ideas that unify the dazzling varieties of digital image making. Smith's story of the pixel's development begins with Fourier waves, proceeds through Turing machines, and ends with the first digital movies from Pixar, DreamWorks, and Blue Sky. Today, almost all the pictures we encounter are digital--mediated by the pixel and irretrievably separated from their media; museums and kindergartens are two of the last outposts of the analog. Smith explains, engagingly and accessibly, how pictures composed of invisible stuff become visible--that is, how digital pixels convert to analog display elements. Taking the special case of digital movies to represent all of Digital Light (his term for pictures constructed of pixels), and drawing on his decades of work in the field, Smith approaches his subject from multiple angles--art, technology, entertainment, business, and history. A Biography of the Pixel is essential reading for anyone who has watched a video on a cell phone, played a videogame, or seen a movie. 400 pages of annotations, prepared by the author and available online, provide an invaluable resource for readers.

Online auction sites often show photographs where details or sections of the photograph have been covered up due to privacy and/or censorship issues. As a result sellers are forced to come up with smart and practical solutions so that the photograph conforms to privacy and censorship guidelines but still show enough of the image to interest prospective buyers. This version of 'Ein Volk ehrt seiner Führer' was purchased at an online auction. Coins were used to censor the images.
